Chassis Range

Does anyone know how to identify the year/month of manufacture of a jap originated vehicle chassis number?
FD3S 110080
FD3S 113217
I'm sure certain numbers denote the build date.
Thanks
Chris P

on the us models you can't really tell when it was built unless you have a range of cars. like
JM1FD3317P0200016, was built in or around 12-91 while JM1FD3319P0203810 was built in 3/92.
you will notice the vin numbers work the same except the us ones have a bunch of extra crap, but the same info. your fd3s-110080 is our jm1fd331?m0110080.
the first number of the last 6, the 1 is the model year.
1 is 92, 2 is 93, 3 is 94 etc.
your best bet is to look at other parts of the car, the weels have a date code, as does some of the interior plastic
